Extra Fare.

ave have some delicate questions to
answer once in q while" said q con-
ductor to me the ether day. Il used
to run ON the Pacific roads years ago
and they required everybody to get a
ticket before they got on the train.
Well, you know how that works, of
course. One man out of five don't get
there in time to buy a ticket. and then
there's trouble. We had to charge a
man twenty-five cents extra if he didn't
have a ticket. Then we had to give
him a drawback check that he could
present at the general Office and get
his quarter back, or something like
that. 1t was done TO make people
more busihess-like, and was also deli
cate hint to the conductor to whack up
with the road occasionally. 1t made q
good deal of trouble, though.
"One day man with no legs rode up
with me distance of fifty miles or so.
and Just had the exact change to take
him there. However, he had Just
barely got to the train in time to be put
aboard. He didn't have the twenty-five
cents extra, and L talked as severe to
him as could, and told him I'd have
TO refuse to take him. You see, if I'd
taken a quarter out of my pocket and
given it to him to put up, the genial,
unhung pirate known as the 'spotter'
would have charged that l had loaned
the cripple a quarter from the com
pany's money. So pulled the bell
cord and the train stopped. 1t was a
question of whether I'd obey orders or
get the Royal G.. b. in a minute.
"Just then an old miner from the last
wildcat stampede, busted but still
generous, woke up and got the drift of
the conversation. When he found out
what the train had stopped for he went
down in his old duck overalls, fished
out his ticket and gave it to the legless
traveller. There said he, 'pardner,
you go on with your internal old train
and I'll git out and walk. I'm in some
thing of hurry, anyhow, and I've got
pretty well rested, so adoo. so long,

He was just getting off the train with

In order to secure more healthy and

In order to secure more healthy and
thorough ventilation, an English archi-
tect advises that rooms should be pro-
vided with many inlets for warmed
fresh air at the hoor-line, the effect of
which would be to drive up all the i'm
pure air toward the hotter stratum
near the ceiling; an outlet at the cell
ing line would then carry off the whole
of the vitiated air. Again, as the
warm air begins to rise as soon as it
enters the room, the more it is subdi-
vided into separate inlets the better,
because it will ascend by the most di-
rect line to the outlet; and, this being
the case, a number of small streams
will move the general body of air in
the room more effectually than one
large current, which would be likely to
pass through the body of air without
affecting anything that did not happen
to be directly in its path. The tenn
perature of the inhowing air, he says,
should be moderate and its velocity
low, but it is desirable that there
should be only one outlet for foul air
from an apartment, because if there
were more than one the draught
might be unequal, and then one would
pull against another, causing a flow of
air down one and up the other, instead
of from the proper outlets. OF course,
in carrying out this arrangement for
ventilation, the one outlet need not
necessarily appear as such in the apart
ment, as its mouth may easily be con-
cealed by perforated cornice or other

by means of piece of lead wire inside
of them, and the hole in which the
wire and the tang of the blade are
placed is lined with a white cement, to
prevent the dark metal from showing

is run over them to detect any slight
depressions. They are finished with
whiting on soft felt wheels.

A SQUIRREL-sATINC SNAKE.

j. E. Curry, who lives two miles
east of Lodi, describes a singular
fight between large bull-snake and
a squirrel, which he witnessed on
his ranch last week. He was perch
ed upon the seat of a six-horse wa
gon and was driving leisurely along
q dusty road when his attention was
attracted by cloud of dust about
one hundred yards down the road.
On arriving at the spot he was sur
prised to see full-grown squirrel in
the embrace of bull-snake. The
snake had succeeded in, setting his
fangs firmly into the squirrel, which
was endeavoring to elude the tight
ening coils of the reptile. The squir-
rel would struggle and exert himself
until exhausted, when he would re-
main quiet till he felt the coils of his
captor tightening about him, when
he would resume his struggles for
freedom but to no avail. Finally,
the rodent becoming exhausted, the
snake managed to wind himself firm
ly about his unfortunate captive,
which was slowly squeezed to death,
Mr.. Curry thinks the snake charmed
the enemy of the wheat-feld, as he
cannot account for the reptile cap
turing such nimble animal in any
other way Lodi Sentinel.

AMERICAN ENTERPRISE.

The American Trading character
istic was noticed in London lately to
the surprise of the Britishers. An
American ship from New York di-
rect, anchored off Blackwell with a
cargo of shoepegs, on ships account.
The Captain went on shore immedi-
ately on his arrival, and inquired
into the market value of shoepegs,
and found TO his dismay that there
was no sale whatever for them; the
value was down to 80 per cent less
than cost in New York. An En-
glish shipper under these circum-
stances would have thrown up the
sponge, and given all up as lost, but
not so with Jonathan, he coolly
thought the matter over, and then
went straight on board, had the
other ends Of the begs sharpened,
and sold the entire cargo as oats.

ARCTIC COLD.

A person who has never been in
the polar regions can probably have
no idea of what cold really is; but
by reading the terrible experiences
of Arctic travellers in that icy region
some notion can be formed of the
extreme cold that prevails there.
When we have the temperature
down TO zero out of doors we think
it bitterly cold, and if our houses
were not so warm as, at least, CO.
above zero, we should begin to talk
of freezing to death. Think, then
of living where the thermometer
goes down to So degrees below zero
in the house in spite of the stove.
OF course, in such case the fur
garments are piled on until a man
looks like a great bundle of skins.
DR.. Moss of the English Polar Ex-
petition of 1875 and 1876, among
other odd things, tells of the effect
of cold on a wax candle which he
burned there. The temperature was
80 degrees below zero, and the Doc
tor must have been considerably dis
couraged when, upon looking at. his
candle, he discovered that the flame
had all it could do to keep warm. 1t
was so cold that the flame could not
melt all the wax of the candle, but
was forced to eat its way down the
candle, leaving sort of skeleton of
the candle standing. There was
heat enough, however, to melt oddly
shaped holes in the thin walls of
wax, and the result was beautiful
lace-like cylinder of white with a
tongue of yellow flame burning in
side it and sending out into the
darkness many streaks of light.
This is not only curious effect of
extreme cold, but it shows how
difficult it must be to find anything
like warmth in place where even
fire itself almost gets cold. The
wonder is that any man can have
the courage to willingly return to
such a bitter region after having
once got safely away from it, and
yet the truth is that the spirit of adj
venture is so strong in some men
that it is the very hardship and
danger which attract them Scien-
tific American.
